TOP OF CHAPTER
Hana to Kipahulu
The question on every day-tripper's mind: should we keep going beyond Hana? The an-
swer: absolutely! The stretch ahead is arguably the most beautiful part of the entire drive.
Less than an hour away lies magical ʻOheʻo Gulch, with its cascading waterfalls, swim-
ming holes and awesome trails. Between the hairpin turns, one-lane bridges and drivers
trying to take in all the sights, it's a slow-moving 10 miles, so sit back and enjoy the ride.
